ABSTRACT

Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to a machine learning-based receiver that operates on the basis of a wide-band RF front-end. The RF front-end outputs clean IQ data to a SPectrum-Analysis-Isolation-Synthesis (SPAIS) system in order to collect analytics of signals present within the monitored band of frequencies, including signal center frequencies, bandwidth and power. The SPAIS system pre-processes the captured wideband IQ data in order to locate frequency bands with signal energy, isolate and synthesize the located frequency bands in corresponding IQ data for individual processing by a neural network with high classification accuracy.

FIELD

The present disclosure relates to signal processing system and method, and more particularly to signal identification and classification for spectrum coexistence and sharing applications including, without limitation, interference mitigation.

BACKGROUND

FIG. 6 illustrates an example of known machine learning neural network-based (ML-based) receivers, which are designed for operation with a narrow-band RF front-end. These ML-based receivers reject out of band interference and noise which may negatively impact the classification accuracy and detection performance of the neural network. Extending the capability of these ML-based receivers to detect and classify multiple radio frequency signals which coexist in a wideband spectrum of frequencies relies heavily on effective and extremely time-consuming training of machine learning neural networks. The training should account for all possible combinations of the coexisting radio frequency signals. It is extremely difficult and highly improbable that known ML-based receivers will have a neural network (NN) that meets the extensive training requirement. As a result, these receivers are unable to detect and classify individual signals or combinations of signals with high accuracy outside of a laboratory environment.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to an ML-based radio frequency (RF) receiver system with spectrum monitoring and slicing capability for use with spectrum coexistence and sharing applications including, without limitation, interference mitigation. The novel ML-based RF receiver system of the present disclosure allows for multi-band centered and concurrently received RF signals to be detected and classified by a neural network (NN) on a per signal or spectrum slice basis. A spectrum continuum is digitized to in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) data by an analog-to-digital (ADC) converter of the receiver front-end. The IQ data are initially processed by a SPectrum-Analysis-Isolation-Synthesis (SPAIS) system in order to collect analytics of signals present within the monitored band of frequencies, where the collected analytics include signal center frequencies, bandwidth, and power. The signals which are determined to be present in the band of frequencies are isolated to allow for more efficient sequential processing by a NN. The exemplary ML based RF receiver system disclosed herein, provides for efficient ML-based spectrum coexistence and sharing (SCS) applications.

FIG. 1 illustrates an ML-based RF receiver system overview in accordance with an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure.

As shown in FIG. 1 , the ML-based RF receiver system 100 can include an RF Front End 102, a SPAIS system 104, a NN 106, and a SCS application 108. The RF Front End 102 is a receiver configured to receive a continuous spectrum of RF signals. The continuous spectrum of RF signals can include multi-band centered and concurrently received RF signals. According to an exemplary embodiment, the RF Front End 102 can include one or more components which initially receive and process an input or incoming RF signal from a source. The RF Front End 102 can include components and circuitry to convert the received RF signal to an intermediate frequency. The one or more components include an antenna 110 and a digital signal processor configured to include any combination of bandpass filter, an RF amplifier, a local oscillator, a mixer, and an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) 112. The RF Front End 102 digitizes the received RF signal and generates in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) data 114. FIGS. 2A and 2B illustrate segments of I and Q data points output by the RF Front End in accordance with an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. The I and Q data of FIGS. 2A and 2B is comprised of 4096 data points.

The IQ data 114 output from the RF Front End 102 can be input to the SPAIS system 104. The SPAIS system 104 can be performed by one or more processors configured to execute program code for performing the specified operations. According to exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure, the SPAIS system 104 is configured to collect analytics of signals present within the monitored band of frequencies, including signal center frequencies, bandwidth and power and subsequently isolate those for efficient sequential processing by a NN. As shown in FIG. 1 , the SPAIS system 104 is configured to execute a Fast-Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithm 118 which pre-processes the captured wideband IQ data 114 by performing spectrum analysis to estimate a spectrum of the IQ data 114. According to an exemplary embodiment, an N-point FFT is performed on the IQ data 114.

FIGS. 3A to 3H illustrate aspects of the SPAIS system 106 in accordance with an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure.

As shown in FIG. 3A, the SPAIS system 106 is composed of a Fast-Fourier Transform (FFT) 118 module that performs a spectrum analysis on the received IQ data. FIG. 3B illustrates the results of a spectrum search and slicing module 120 which identifies signals present and their spectral location within the monitored band of frequencies and an Inverse-FFT (IFFT) module 122 that translates and synthesizes the identified signals with reduced data rate according to their bandwidth or spectrum slice. The SPAIS system 106 facilitates efficient training of a NN to detect and classify individual signals or signal combinations of interest with high accuracy and undisturbed by other coexisting signals.

FIG. 3C illustrates an exemplary waveform 300 of an N-point FFT performed by the SPAIS system 106 on IQ data 114 output from the RF Front End 104 in accordance with an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. The N-point FFT X(k) of a time-domain signal x(n) is described by the following equation:

${X(k)} = {\underset{n = 0}{\sum\limits^{N - 1}}{{x(n)}e^{{- j}\frac{2\pi}{N}kn}}}$

where, n is time index in [0, N−1] and k is frequency index in [0, N−1]. The power spectrum shown in FIG. 3C corresponds to a 4096-point FFT performed on the captured (I_(i), Q_(i)) data 114.

According to exemplary embodiments, an FFT module 118 is used for the efficient computation of the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) of the time-domain IQ data to the frequency-domain (see FIG. 3A). It should be understood that the FFT module 118 could be replaced with another suitable transform where the basis functions are other than harmonically related complex exponential functions.

FIG. 3D illustrates a spectrum search and spectrum slicing performed on the signal of FIG. 3B. As shown in FIG. 3D, the SPAIS system 106 searches the estimated spectrum for signals present and estimates their center frequency f_(c,i), (i=1, 2, 3 . . . ) 302, bandwidth, power and other analytics via processing of the FFT coefficients X(k). The spectrum slicing regions 304 are determined according to reported signal analytics or other spectrum monitoring requirements. For example, the SPAIS system 104 identifies the signals 302 present and their spectral location 304 within the monitored band of frequencies such that the IQ data is isolated and synthesized within the corresponding frequency bands. The spectrum search and slicing module 120 also estimates a center frequency and bandwidth of each data signal based on the isolated and synthesized IQ data.

Once the data signals are identified, an Inverse-FFT (IFFT) algorithm 122 is performed such that each of the one or more data signals is then reconstructed based on the data signal's estimated center frequency and spectrum slice allocation. FIG. 3E illustrates exemplary results of a signal isolation and synthesis performed by the IFFT on the signal 300 of FIG. 3C. As shown in FIG. 3E, the SPAIS system 106 uses the IFFT module 122 to perform M-point IFFT and synthesize in time-domain each signal 306 present in the band of frequencies and translate the existing signals to common center frequency by accounting for their respective center frequency and spectrum slice allocation. The IFFT module 122 translates and synthesizes the identified signals of the spectrum search and slicing module 120 with reduced data rate according to their bandwidth or spectrum slice. The M-point IFFT x(n) of a FFT X(k) is described by the following equation:

${x(n)} = {\frac{1}{M}{\sum\limits_{k = 0}^{M - 1}{{X(k)}e^{j\frac{2\pi}{N}kn}}}}$

where, n is time index in [0, M−1] and k is frequency index in [0, M−1].

The IFFT module 122 translates each signal that is present to a common center frequency by multiplying Equation 2 or x(n) by e^(−j2pΔf) ^(o) ^(n), where Δf_(o) is the frequency offset between the signal center frequency and the common center frequency. The ratio N/M_(i), (i=1, 2, 3 . . . ) reflects the captured IQ data volume reduction the SPAIS system 104 performs for the synthesis of the IQ data of the i-th signal found.

FIG. 3F illustrates an exemplary SPAIS system output for a first signal found in the I and Q waveforms of FIGS. 2A and 2B, respectively. For the signal of FIG. 3E, the SPAIS system 104 performs an IFFT in which M₁=256-point. The processing of the Input (T_(i), Q_(i)) data volume, or equivalently, results in a signal data-rate reduction by a factor of N/M₁=4096/256=16.

FIG. 3G illustrates an exemplary SPAIS system output for a second signal found in the I and Q waveforms of FIGS. 2A and 2B, respectively. For the signal of FIG. 3G, the SPAIS system 104 performs an IFFT in which M₂=256-point. The processing of the Input (T_(i), Q_(i)) data volume, or equivalently, results in a signal data-rate reduction by a factor of N/M₂=4096/1024=4.

FIG. 3H illustrates an exemplary SPAIS system output for a third signal found in the I and Q waveforms of FIGS. 2A and 2B, respectively. For the signal of FIG. 3H, the SPAIS system 104 performs an IFFT in which M₃=512-point. The processing of the Input (T_(i), Q_(i)) data volume, or equivalently, results in a signal data-rate reduction by a factor of N/M₃=4096/512=8.

Returning to FIG. 1 , the NN 106 receives the reconstructed IQ data 116 from the SPAIS system 104 and performs a data classification on the one or more reconstructed data signals. The NN 106 leverages the spectrum search and spectrum slicing capability of the SPAIS 104 system and it is trained to classify individual signals or the coexistence of those in close proximity within a spectrum of frequencies. As a result, the NN 106 provides very high classification accuracy on a per signal classification basis and undisturbed by other coexisting signals within the broader monitored band of frequencies. The NN 106 generates an output signal which includes a classification result of each of the one or more reconstructed data signals. The output signal generated by the NN 106 is sent to a Spectrum Coexistence and Sharing (SCS) application 108, which optimizes use of the radio frequency or wireless communication channels based on the classification of the NN 106.
